Hazards & Control of Vehicles

Traffic and pedestrian movement at workplaces should be designed, planned and controlled so that pedestrians and vehicles can circulate safely.

Improving workplace traffic safety, in addition to reducing work-related injuries, can also improve workplace efficiency and productivity.

Workplace vehicle hazards may occur during:

  • Pedestrian movement at workplaces; 
  • Vehicles or plant reversing and manoeuvring;
  • Arrivals and departures;
  • Loading, unloading;
  • Hitching and unhitching of trailers; 
  • Mounting or dismounting from vehicles; 
  • Securing of loads; and 
  • Maintenance work.
